Why do you need a will?
A will outlines how your estate – the things you own – will be distributed to your relatives when you pass away. This is a legally recognised document that safeguards your final wishes. Even if you don’t have a lot of money or own a house, you may want to leave other valuable or sentimental items to particular people.
Creating a will is something that many of us avoid, often because it is perceived to be complicated and time-consuming. If your will is going to be relatively straightforward, creating an online will is a great way to save money and the hassle of organising appointments.
